Notes

08-02-2018

I did 27 body repeats and my handle ended up being about 23 inches long. I only had 2 feet left which I could have just added to the handle.

I am really happy with the hemp yarn and looking forward to seeing its durability. It feels like it will stretch but not over stretch. This is a 6 ply 100% hemp yarn.

The most challenging step in working with this yarn was picking up the required number of stitches along the bottom right before you move to the body. But I’m a tight knitter so that’s always a challenge. grinning
